“Whosoever is delighted in solitude is either a wild beast or a god.” -Sir Francis Bacon

Drawing is a solitary pursuit. Beasts and gods come and go and the artist’s job is to mark their passage. It is important to keep the marks in a safe place. Wild Life Refuge is a celebration of artists that create their own personalized worlds in their own visual language, separate from homogenized culture and in defiance of artificial economics.

Celebrate the release of the infamous 1987 live WNUF Halloween Special broadcast for the first time on DVD.

Previously, this cult classic could only be found on bootlegged VHS tapes. But now you can see for yourself what happens when, to celebrate Halloween, WNUF sends a team of paranormal investigators and local reporter into The Webber House - the site of a series of grisly murders.

Local filmmaker and curator of this release, Chris LaMartina will host this informal screening and DVD release party.

Plus, we will be holding a raffle for dinner in your home prepared by
Chef Chad Gauss of The Food Market and Robbin Haas of Birroteca!

Tickets are $35. Proceeds benefit Hampden Family Center.

Then, after things wrap up at the Family Center, head over to Atomic Books' Eightbar for an afterparty. Snacks courtesy of The Food Market, and Atomic will donate $1 for every drink to the Hampden Family Center.
